United States men's national team player Richard Ledezma is set to join Liga MX side Chivas upon the expiry of his contract at PSV Eindhoven this summer, a source has told ESPN.
Ledezma, 24, has been at the Eredivisie club since 2020, scoring two goals in 38 appearances.
A source told ESPN that PSV had offered Ledezma a contract extension, but the versatile defender/midfielder has instead agreed a four-year deal with the Mexican club.
Other clubs in Mexico as well as teams in Italy and one in England's second-tier Championship had expressed interest in Ledezma, sources said.
ESPN reported in January that Ledezma received interest from from Liga MX side Club América, but the reigning Dutch champions turned down the approach.
Ledezma's future on the international stage is unclear. Mexico national team head coach Javier Aguirre confirmed in February that he contacted dual-national Ledezma ahead of the March international window to discuss his future with El Tri.
Born in Phoenix, Arizona, to Mexican parents, Ledezma has exclusively featured for the USMNT, making his under-20 debut in March 2018 against France before going on to play for the U.S. youth squad on three other occasions.
He has made one appearance for the senior U.S. men's national team, in a friendly against Panama in November 2020.
But Ledezma, who holds both U.S. and Mexico passports, is still eligible to play for El Tri.
Ledezma won his first Eredivisie title last weekend when PSV sensationally pipped Ajax to the title having previously been trailing by nine points with five matches remaining in the season.
Information from ESPN's Jeff Carlisle was used in this report.
